Default Re: So it\'s 3 bets to me in the BB with A8o....I cap

I like this...Although it does take huge set of balls to do this. With maniac raising a LARGE range of hands you probably have a good edge on him. Button probably thinks he can isolate and use his position to beat maniac out of the pot so his range may have loosened up significantly, espescially from late position. But what is your strategy from here?
I'm assuming a large portion of your decision rests on the fact that you are making such a strong raise out of position for deception representing a very strong hand.
so do you lead out on the flop regardless? I think I would bet and hope the board hit neither. or maybe button got a piece and your deception gives you a significant fold equity on him. the only thing you should be worried about is if Maniac hits any and you go unimproved, you hit your ace and button has a bigger one, or button has a PP.

I believe, given your image, given previous action and events, this is a good play. Unfortunately If you don't hit or can't pull it down on the flop, you will be in for some very tough decisions
